Sherman tried to suppress the anger rumbling deep in his chest.0

South Korea had always managed to walk a fine line between great powers. With a sudden burst of luck and the emergence of the monster known as the God of Blackfield, it started attracting the attention of France, Russia, and China. However, it could not and should not attempt to stand without the United States.0

“Mr. President, do you realize how much your words are jeopardizing South Korea?” Sherman asked.0

Ignoring Hwang Ki-Hyun’s piercing gaze, he looked Moon Jae-Hyun directly in the eye. “South Korea and its president will be abandoning the hand of an old ally because you were tempted by short-term interests. I believe you need to make a sound judgment about whether your country can achieve national unity without the United States and whether abandoning Arabl oil and Jewish money will help you develop the next generation of energy.”0

Moon Jae-Hyun nodded in agreement. “Director Sherman, it sounds like you are well aware of next-generation energy.”0

What is this man trying to say?0

“It will be a whole new world when oil engines are replaced by electric engines.”0

Well, of course!0

Sherman nodded.0

“If the United States truly has such a vested interest in this opportunity, would you sign a joint development proposal if my country offered you some terms?”0

Sherman looked at Moon Jae-Hyun as if he’d been slapped in the face.0

“The foundations of entire industries would change. Every technology and product that South Korea makes, right down to the engine and the littlest parts of it, could become the standard. Why don’t we take a look at the conditions you offered in exchange for the benefits of the electric energy industry and the Eurasian Rail?...0
